Chapter 35 Change of Plan
Author: The bear skimming the treetops
Next, Fang was now in the dark and Ji Chenglin was in the dark and continued to visit four other bookstores, but the results were similar to the first bookstore.
In the end, only the Lincheng Library at No. 39 Qingshan Road remained.
Fang was now sitting on the rickshaw and saw a three-story white Western-style building in the distance, which was very eye-catching.
Lincheng Library has a long history and evolved from a traditional small library in the Wanqing Dynasty.
It was at the intersection of the 19th and 20th centuries, a time of rapid social change, and the spread of Western learning to the east was surging. When the library was founded, it was the first of its kind and made shocking innovations——
It is open to all people on an equal basis and realizes the great dream of the Reform Movement of 1898 to open up people's intelligence and social education, and sounds the clarion call for traditional libraries to transform into public libraries.
Fang has been longing for this library for a long time, but he never thought that the first time he came here was to investigate a case.
Stepping up the stairs, I discovered that there was a recruitment notice for temporary administrators posted next to the wooden sign in the library.
Fang just glanced at it now and quickly entered the library without stopping.
His eyes wandered around, carefully observing the people around him.
There are many students like him in the library, as well as many elegant and cultural people.
Fang now followed the index on the bookshelf and quickly found the book "Records of Famous Mountains and Scenic Spots in the World". There were three books in total on the bookshelf.
This kind of book should be considered a niche book and is not popular, so I couldn't find it in the five previous bookstores.
Fang now slowly stretched his hand towards the bookshelf, but just when his fingers were about to touch one of the books on famous mountains and scenic spots in the world, he suddenly retracted it.
This should be the last hope. He really wants to reveal the answer, but is afraid that this hope will be shattered.
While he was hesitating, a pleasant female voice sounded in his ears: "Classmate, please give way!"
Fang now hurriedly turned around and found a short-haired female student behind him looking at him with a pair of sparkling eyes.
The simple gray school skirt fit her perfectly, and the sunlight coming in from the window just hit her snow-white socks, making them dazzling.
Fang now couldn't help but look at her a few more times. Her face was rosy and unpainted, showing the freshness of her bare makeup. There was no ink tracing between her eyebrows, and her expression was gentle. When she smiled, her dimples and fangs were revealed, which added to the beauty of her face.
Quite playful.
"Oh, I'm sorry!" Fang now woke up from his trance, and realized that the aisle between the bookshelves was very narrow, and he was blocking the way. He hurriedly took a step back, trying to clear the aisle as much as possible.
"Thanks!"
The female student smiled and nodded, walking gently past Fang Jin.
Because he was so close, he could even see the fine hairs on her face and neck clearly, which made her skin even more breakable and white and tender.
A faint fragrance came from her body along with the heat, and now she felt as if a deep valley orchid was passing by her.
The female student did not stop, like a light bird, she quickly disappeared around the bookshelf.
Fang now took a deep breath, gathered his mind, and looked around with his peripheral vision. When he was sure that no one was paying attention to him, he quickly raised his hand and took down a book on the world's famous mountains and scenic spots from the bookshelf, and then walked a few steps
Reached the other end of the bookshelf.
The moment I opened the back cover, a familiar feeling suddenly appeared.
After just one glance, he was sure that this was what he was looking for.
Fang now subconsciously took out his library card and carefully looked at the paper bag attached to the back cover.
You can’t go wrong!
His heart began to beat rapidly.
He glanced at the people around him with his peripheral vision and found that they had not noticed him, and quickly flipped through the other two books.
This time, he was even more sure.
I guess the librarian is also a very meticulous person in his work, so the paper bags are exactly right on the back cover.
He suppressed his excitement and walked to the bookshelf next door, pretending to select books, while his brain was searching for answers, desperately thinking about how Yan Jianbo transmitted information to his companions through this small library card.
Each library card has ten slots, which means that after a book is borrowed ten times, it will need to be replaced with a new one.
Judging from the borrowing situation, the three books currently in the library have only been borrowed fifteen times in more than a year. They are definitely unpopular books.
Based on this borrowing frequency, it is estimated that there will never be more than five names on the library card destroyed by Yan Jianbo.
At present, the best way to find out the truth is to go to the librarian to check the loan receipt registration.
It's just that libraries are different from small bookstores run by individuals, so Lao Ji's method of pretending to be a policeman may not be feasible.
He was not worried that Lao Ji and the others would come over now, because it was agreed in advance that the plan would not be launched until at least ten minutes after he left the library.
But I can't stay here any longer. Maybe Yan Jianbo's accomplices are in a corner of the library right now.
Once the other party is startled, the clues will no longer be traced.
After all, I am not an experienced agent, so it is difficult to guarantee that no flaws will be revealed.
Now that I think about it, the two plans for the overt and covert investigation were a bit hasty.
It's okay to use in ordinary small bookstores, but libraries have a lot of traffic, and the bookshelves divide a large space into dozens of small spaces. While blocking the line of sight, it is also more suitable for spies to hide.
Thinking of this, Fang now randomly picked a book from the bookshelf, walked quickly out of the aisle between the bookshelves, and walked towards the door.
"Teacher, I would like to borrow this book." Fang now handed the book and library card to the counter at the same time.
Just in case, Zhang Xinhua prepared a library card for him early in the morning.
While the librarian was busy registering, the female student just now came over with a few books, and now she subconsciously gave her a faint smile.
The female student also smiled back, then shyly turned her head and turned her gaze to the librarian, but she soon showed a surprised expression.
Fang now didn't know why. The procedure was quickly completed. He thanked him, picked up the book and library card, and turned around to leave.
"Hey, I borrowed the same book!"
After taking a few steps, I heard the librarian say something. Only now did I understand why the female student had a surprised expression just now.
Without thinking too much, he quickly left the library and walked east along the road for more than two hundred meters. He happened to meet Lao Ji and two other tool policemen head-on.
Fang Jin winked calmly. Lao Ji was slightly surprised and then understood.
Afterwards, the two pretended not to know each other and passed each other by.
This road is a boulevard with green trees, and small buildings are hidden in the depths of green.
While walking on the road, Fang was now sorting out his thoughts.
At present, the clue about the library card should be correct.
The important information that the spy under the alias Yan Jianbo tried his best to hide and conceal was on the destroyed library card.
But what information will be on the library card?
At present, it is nothing more than a person's name and a time.
Passing by passers-by heading to the library, Fang now couldn't help but look at them, looking at them all as if they were Yan Jianbo's accomplices.
He couldn't help but clenched his fists, as if those people would suddenly pounce out and bite his throat.
I was actually a little stunned!
I have to report to Zhang Xinhua and change my plan quickly.
Chapter completed!
